Traffic Jams

About two weeks ago, Dennis and I were in an unusual traffic jam. Usually it takes us 10-15 minutes to get to Karori for our taekwondo class on Mondays. So we left at our normal time. It took us 45 minutes to get there and then I found out why it took so long. One of the main roads that leads to the motorway was closed due to a truck oil spill. That meant a lot more traffic was using the back roads which happened to be in my neighborhood!
